Microsoft Live Labs Creates Web ‘Synth’ For 3-D Photo Tour | Walter S. Mossberg | Personal Technology | AllThingsD

See the full article for Walt Mossberg's take on Photosynth (starting with a couple Microsoft-bashing paragraphs, of course, for consistency...)

Photosynth, based on technology Microsoft acquired in 2006, is entirely free, and it’s entirely based on the Web, at photosynth.net (where it will be launched at midnight EST Thursday). At that site you can view not only your own synths, but the synths created by every other Photosynth user.

I’ve been testing this service for about a week, and while it has its flaws, I believe that Photosynth offers a dramatic new way to use your photos and to share them with others.
